I cant split Sinclair's one and Bravo's caught and bowled to remove Warne recently.
Im also pleased you spelt Sinclair's name right. Many people mispell "Mathew" as "Matthew" - even in the media.

That was a scorcher of a catch but I also liked Fatty Vautins catch in that celebrity match some years ago, LOL, he was running and caught it with one hand above his head.

Can't beat mine. We were at the park near my place and the ball went flying and I ran 20 metres to take a diving catch about 1cm off the ground.

vautins was a screamer. i have to add, any catch that mark waugh ever took. especially in the mid to late 90s, he took one at square leg thatd been smashed a few metres wide of him. he took it horizontally, about 5 foot in the air

This catch by Mike Hussey in an ING Cup match two or three seasons ago. Feilding at cover, the ball gets smacked in his direction. Huss dives about a metre and a half to the right, perfectly perpendicular to the ground and catches it in the fingertips of his right hand. Might I add that Hussey is left handed...

Glenn McGrath's catch was absolutely brilliant, he could've popped out his arm diving for that catch on fine-leg!
Ever since then that catch was inspirational to me, until i saw Chappo!
Relax, let the weight out of your body and lift it up and say you beauty!
Or something like that :p.

Yeah I voted for Chappo, but I think Ponting's was the best. One of those will win it. Hehehe, everybody KNOWS that Graeme Smith and his catch sucks.

Mark Taylors in an ODI aswell. He dropped it, it hit his foot, flickered up and then dived to catch it or something.

What about Geraint Jones's Catch in the ashes i think the fourth test. One of the slips Dropped it so Jones dived for it and Caught it. It was a great catch for England supporters But for us Aussie supporters it was...:o

Indeed. It wasnt bad for a keeper that many describe as "the worst keeper in international cricket." Hes under-rated, is Jones.
